Editorial Reviews

"Killer" Joe Delia (who doubles on piano and organ) covers a lot of musical ground on this intriguing release. Whether it be rock, R&B, boogie-woogie or a bit of swing, Delia plays each style with spirit. Delia is joined by guitarist Jimmy Vivino, bassist David Keyes, drummer Max Weinberg (of Bruce Springsteen's E-Street band), singer Haywood Gregory, Jerry Vivino on tenor and a small horn section. In addition, there are several guest performers including tenor saxophonist Branford Marsalis, singer Phoebe Snow and, on a rather adventurous production number (Bruce Springsteen's "Summer on Signal Hill"), the group is joined by the Orchestra of St. Luke's plus a cameo by the Beach Boys. The repertoire also includes some originals plus "Peter Gunn," Albert King's "Let's Have a Natural Ball," Lieber & Stoller's "Down in Mexico" and Amos Milburn's "Chicken Shack Boogie."

Not a whole lot to say, just a very enjoyable CD. Like most POP albums compressed to hell with no substantial dynamic range. A couple of Springsteen songs with a very tight group that plays well together.
